Quite honestly I am terrible at expressing myself on the internet. Commenting on Jezebel is an AWFUL vice of mine and feeds into masochistic/time wasting tendencies...
I apologize for off color shit. I'm sure we could have a nuanced and intelligent discussion about this in real life and come away from the conversation

I kind of like you (& that gif)

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Maybe you should do something productive with your rage.
Like go back to Japan and proselytize to those poor ignorant Japanese girls about how their fandom is hurting the Japanese-ish people back in the States. Go tell 'em!

Newsflash: I'm not writing a fucking dissertation on the various manifestations of Japanese culture and ethnicity.
In case you forgot, we're talking about the response to a Katy Perry performance.
Do you know what social media is? It's a cool thing, wherein people can respond to an event in real time, no matter where

We perceive racism in the photo because of history, yes — but is that not the power of art? It makes the unconscious real. That is why my initial reaction

My point is that the piece itself is not racist.
The reaction to the image speaks to the power of art — and to the reality of racism in our society.
But again — I do not believe that the piece of art itself is racist.

Well, psycho was used colloquially. ;)
You're too reasonable to be commenting on the internet!

I would be mad but you used a Beyonce gif and I'm too busy worshipping

This person asked me a pointed question. Inserting yourself into this particular thread purely for the sake of antagonizing me is the definition of trolling. I happen to have a very different POV about this than most people. I am also passionate about art and what it means, which is why I participate in these kinds of

Oh. Then why do you think it's sexist...?

Use your words.

ha, you actually made me LOL
